Carb Machine Gun Stutter
This is driving me up the wall
The left carb at small throttle openings sounds like a machine gun then clears and runs fine
It didn't do this before and now had carb apart several times,changed pilot jet,checked float height etc to no avail
Changed plugs and swapped HT leads over too
It is a part throttle problem so I guess the slow running circuit is the culprit ?
Don't know what else to try

These are in my YPVS 350 engine with ramairs so I guess it won't be perfect but it was running great a short while a go
It runs nice under load,it's just as you apply the throttle from almost closed and seems to happen about 3-4 K
I run big pilots as in #45 as when on a closed throttle it would hunt and jerk about and bigger pilots cured it

How can you tell its the left carb while riding with filters over the carb mouth,or does it do it in neutral aswell?
Backfiring/banging out of the carb is usually caused by an over rich fuel mix,are you positive the slides are opening at exactly the same time/amount?
are you still running the reed block balance pipe?
